During the early twenty century and the nineteenth century the black people in America we being viewed as less human. This led to them being denied civil and human rights, it was important for the black people to stand up for themselves and prove they were as well important and capable. Among those who stood up are women hence we celebrate the African American women in history. They became great in their professions and also gained social responsibilities .

For a woman to make it to the top, it requires a lot of hard work and perseverance. In the past most people did not have high regards on women unlike in modern society. Women had no much say then, unlike today. Being a black woman made things worse as most people were racists. We have women who stood firm on their grounds and let nothing sway them apart and are today referred to as the African American women in history.

Women have done a lot of remarkable accomplishments that changes the history. Tasks that only men can do before are now dominated by ladies too. Some significant and influential personalities become inventors, scientists and such. Women therefore, are not only great at household works. They are more capable to do things with their own strength and knowledge.
